Lennart, Although I haven't been able to get you a trace back, I can inform that the crash appears to be related with using a combined_sink. I was using a combined_sink to drive 2 sound cards. Once I removed that feature, pulseaudio appears to run without segfault. I didn't have this issue with stock fc7 0.9.6 pulseaudio.
